2006年1月29日 · Z Scale - 1:220. The TrainBoard discussion forum is one of the Internet's oldest railfan, railroad and model railroad-related websites; online continuously since March 2000.

2017年12月5日 · Well, yes. Mind you, 3 mm in Z is 660 mm (or some 26 inches) gauge in real life, so we are talking very narrow gauge. Check this video, the maker used a t-gauge chassis in the passenger car to motorize this Z scale narrow gauge railway. In the back, for reference, you'll see Marklin Z scale loc and cars.

2012年7月4日 · I have used digitrax in N scale before coming to Z scale but have not regretted staring with power cab in Z scale and I now use it with my n-scale as well.I even sold my digitrax and purchased a second Power Cab and along with my laptop and decoder Pro and USB connection to power cab bus I am well pleased with my system.

2023年9月29日 · These are the same Z scale models I've designed and printed myself. They're made for a filament printer, but they could be done on a resin printer. (If anyone makes them on a resin printer, let me know the settings and such. I'd love to add that information to the listings.) Here are the models I have available now:

2007年12月4日 · In any case, "to each his own"; I certainly hope your project will work out to your own (key word there) satisfaction. As for me, I hope to take full advantage of what Z scale can offer; that is, to be able to build a layout that in any other scale would simply be too large for the space I have available.

2016年10月18日 · The only other light boards I know of are the ones from SBS4DCC. They are Made To Order as are his Z scale trucks with power pick-ups. You have to order them or email him first then he will make them for you. He also sells the components to build your own trucks with power pickups. Easy-Peasy Well that depends on your skill level.

2019年11月28日 · Welcome the the Z Scale forum! There is lots of info here to help, and searching this form on specific topics can yield great info. I built an HO layout first, 4 N Scale layouts over the years, and started dabbling with Z in 2003. That said, I myself tend to go with more realistic and detailed modeling.

2025年1月13日 · My Z scale power connection track appears to have a capacitor wired into it. Is this mandatory for Marklin trains? The easiest way to solder power feeds is to solder to the rail joiners as it keeps from melting ties in track. Does anyone …

2015年9月6日 · Most Z newer scale locomotives draw less than 100 miliamps. Even the older slot car motors don't draw much more than 400 miliamps. Most power packs make 2 amps or more. Thats 20 newer locomotives worth of power! You don't need that much. In larger scales (HO) you do, but in Z scale it can actually cause problems.

2011年2月11日 · The first option is an MRC sound station, the second is an N scale sound decoder (I run DCC). I was wondering if anyone has used an N scale sound decoder in a Z scale box car and modified a metal wheelset on the boxcar to be a resistive wheelset or added wheel wipers to power the sound decoder.
